Added some real speaker cloth to the speaker, the tan was just a test, I have a bunch more colors.

We are going with RGB spotlights in the back of each corner that will hopefully move. These are just a test, we are designing our own. The end design will be larger.

Yes, it looks like it should. I have a Premium, and I compared the underside of my playfield to the Pro model pic on their site, and it looks like the same setup. I have a diffuser on order but don't have it on hand yet to actually confirm for sure.

I don't think there are "slow" servos, just standard and fast (or high torque). If you want speed control, lower voltage "may" work, or you might have to PWM the voltage.

a bracket similar to the spotlight we have on the slingshots, something that will give me a few options, i can move around.
connections for g.i., i wouldn't mind if there is only wires coming out.

i'd start with 2 of them.
